Exploring the 'Subtle' in Qigong Movement ~ Let's Practice ☀️
Qigong has many layers to the practice beyond the movement that we see on the surface.
The simplicity of practice gives us time to explore the subtleties that we can notice only when we have time to observe and explore them.
In this Qi Chat we will discuss:
- why we focus on subtle movements and the benefits of it
- the basic movements in Qigong (review)
- integrating breath with our movements
- 3 subtle movements that can improve our practice (that we haven't discussed before)
